Position within West Virginia

23 citations — more than 80% of the 82 licensed assisted living facilities in West Virginia. Compared only within West Virginia: a citation from OHFLAC means what it means in West Virginia, and there is no national assisted living record to compare to. Counted over 3 years, which holds two or three routine inspections. How this is calculated

Not in this record

Severity, the regulation text, the surveyor's narrative, and enforcement. OHFLAC rates no deficiency's severity and records no correction date. The rule text on its site is served in an obfuscated typeface and is not read, and the statement of deficiency and the plan of correction are the surveyor's and the facility's own text and are not republished. What is here is unusual among states: OHFLAC surveys fire and life safety itself and publishes those findings per residence, so this record carries a real life safety section. Fines, licence actions and administrators' names are in the state's record and are not republished.

Life safety and building citations

The citations about the building itself — fire and life safety, physical plant and emergency management. Usually the maintenance side’s to fix.
